How to find out in which SVN revision a file was deleted.

This will give you the revisions for all the actions (add, delete, remove, modify) concerning the file

svn log -v --limit <nr> -v | grep -E '<fileName>|^r' | grep -B 1 <fileName>

where:

<fileName> - the name of the file or any pattern which matches it
<nr> - how many revisions deep into the past in which I want to look for

example:

svn log -v --limit 300 -v | grep -E '_test2.php|^r' | grep -B 1 _test2.php

search log for lines related to _test2.php but don't waste time on any revisions more than 300 revisions earlier than the newest revision (HEAD)
